Bobby Deol has marked a stellar comeback to the silver screen with his role of Abrar Haque in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal. Despite having a barely 20-minute role in the film, Bobby as Abrar Haque has left quite an impact on the audience with his entry song and scene attaining close to cult status. The actor has now revealed how the mirthful turned gory scene, was actually choreographed by himself.

Bobby Deol reveals he conceptualised his own entry
In a recent interview with Bollywood Spy, Bobby Deol revealed how he was the mind behind his own entry scene in Animal. For the unversed, the second half of Animal opens with a montage of Ranbir Kapoor's Rannvijay Singh lighting a smoke before the scene splits to reveal Bobby Deol's face - marking Abrar Haque's entry in the film. Dancing at his third wedding, Abrar can be seen casually grooving to the Iranian classic Jamal Kudu as he balances a whiskey glass on his head.
Addressing the rather popular scene, Bobby Deol said, "When we started shooting, the choreographer said, ‘You do it.’ I was like, ‘What will I do?’ I started dancing and he told me, 'No, No. Don’t do it like Bobby Deol.’...Then I suddenly remembered the time when I was small and we used to go to Punjab. I remembered how we used to get drunk and keep glasses on our head. I never understood why we did it. It suddenly came in my mind and I did that. Sandeep liked it."
